One thing I like about the US debates is they are held in places like universities and don’t carry any advertising. All these logos splashed around the set etc, I just think these debates need to be more neutral without all the other distractions. ---

I’m sure that even though this debate is not over, Sky News has already declared Dutton the winner and Paul Murray will be on soon yelling at his viewers about how he won despite the lefty nine media conglomerate being against him. ---

Judging from the caps, one thing I like about the graphics was the smaller 9Election tag, versus the usual one for news. Should be the standard size! Echo with everyone about the logo wall. Surely one 9 Media masterbrand would suffice? ---

There are plenty of ways Nine could promote all of the outlets associated with or simulcasting their debate in an elegant yet non intrusive manner. Instead they’ve decided to graffiti it behind Aly and the panel.
